Head coach Renna Bersosa was arrested Friday, Aug. 25, and accused of a misdemeanor failure to report child abuse. She was booked into the Collin County jail then released on a $3,500 bond later that day.
Assistant coach Kasie Ostrom was arrested Tuesday, Aug. 29, for the same offense. She was released on a personal recognizance bond, DMN reports.
